How did your firm decide on the primary area of practice(s)?

I was a business owner of a successful Mental Health Counseling Practice before becoming an attorney. I am also the founding owner of Roth & Associates LLC. It is a natural progression of my own career development to understand the challenges of business ownership first hand. This experience as well as my experience as the in-house corporate counsel for a publically traded Massachusetts company that provides me with the skill to represent small to mid-sized business owners from their entity formation through to their succession planning and exit strategy.

What is your firm's point of view regarding clients educating themselves on legal issues?

Many of my clients are knowledgeable consumers of legal services. I work with their basic understanding of corporate law to develop the best business plans to meet their needs and objectives.

Is your firm willing to review documents prepared by clients?

My clients often bring me documents to review. However, my review is not a rubber stamp as I will carefully analyze the document and make changes as necessary to meet its legal compliance protections as intended.

Is your firm willing to coach clients who want to represent themselves?

I have assisted clients who want to represent themselves at the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination.
